Integrating research from basic and advanced nutrition science with biochemistry, genetics, and physiology, Advanced Nutrition presents integral concepts in nutrition science and details the role of each macro and micronutrient with respect to energy metabolism. Combining revised and expanded information from Advanced Nutrition Micronutrients and Advanced Nutrition Macronutrients, Second Edition, this volume includes new chapters on the regulation of food intake, daily recommendations, nutrition assessment, metabolism, toxicology, nutrigenomics, epigenetics, gene expression, cell cycle, and lifespan nutrition. The text also includes a glossary of terms, clinical correlates, diagrams, supplemental readings, and an accompanying CD-ROM with laboratory exercises and PowerPoint illustrations.
